Personally, I thought he looked like a dog chewing a bone.

Allow me a little theatricality! No idea about the dog but saw the photo, thought 'Jez' and saved a copy.

My taste in trainers is less chavvy and my gutties well.....

Apparently gutties is from "gutta percha" being the rubber the soles were originally made from. From the Malay "getah percha" meaning rubber tree gum.

There ye have it. Another piece of useless information that will push something useful out of your head.

I had to share This
It's a face book link, but watch for the wheel throwing mud at him after.

And now you've seen it, a bit more. Seems the thing he was most annoyed at was it broke his glasses. He had to fork out £300 for new ones....but...

He got £250 back coz he sold the video to you've been framed

Willie's a nice guy, but he knows the value of a pound. Hell not give you a fat penny for a thin one....

Nice to see the person filming it showing so much concern and rushing to his aid

It's off the house security camera ... His missus posted it first.

Willie's a really top guy, if a bit Aberdonian. Even though he's from Wick.

Ah, I initially thought it was filmed from a window, but it's a PC

If I'm interpreting that correctly. We Brits who get very little gas from Russia. Will be being shafted this winter. In the same way as countries who rely heavily upon Russian gas

My friend has just electric and oil heating. His parents have gas and electric same suppliers, parents on dual fuel.

He pays more for electric than they do, apparently the company feels it's only fair to subsidise the users of their gas supplies by charging the users on electric alone.

He gets no subsidy for the cost of his oil, of course...

 

[Big Sandy]

His words on the subject...

My parents in the SE are with the same suppler but dual fuel. My electricity charge is higher per KWh than theirs and my standing charge is over 50 pence per day.
Phoned the supplier querying why and was told because you don’t have gas it is unfair to sell electricity at the same price as dual fuel customers to you. The burden of wholesale gas prices has to be shared.

Fair? Hogwash! Are petrol buyers subsidising diesel drivers?

It's about tariffs which are about marketing for maximal profit. Fuel prices are interrelated because of the potential to switch and the cost barriers to doing so.

Some also see seasonal variation because e.g. charter flights drop off in winter but the same kerosene ends up in oil fired heating over the winter except for the lot who spend Christmas in Klosters! Chin! Chin!

Kin right. Near 20p a litre difference between derv and petrol in Thurso yesterday. Ok, it’s cheaper than it was, but…..

And E5 is the same price as chip oil.

As I know.

To my cost

 

[Steve 998cc]

Just out of interest which is cheaper to produce petrol or diesel?
